We have lots of sport clubs where most of teens spend their time after school. Also we have annual May race event for the fancy of running. As for me I enjoy spending my free time in an active way, often with my family or with my friends. I have not so much free time as I want but I try to get both good and pleasure from it. I go cycling when its warm, help my parents when they need, relax with my friends when Im tied.

Spending spare time is different by boys who like more to explore cars, technique and extreme kinds of sport, and by girls, who are more worried what they look like, so they go shopping, experiment with their appearance, read fashion magazines when they are free. Of course, every boy and every girl has his or her own preferences who to spend free time, but the main aim is the same- to relax after busy day… As for me I enjoy spending my free time in an active way, often with my family or with my friends.
